I was able to pull a David Copperfield this morning by magically turning the Alpha & Pleasantville NJ jugs into 9 Paterson NJ jugs and 1 Passaic NJ jug for a friend who collects Passaic.

First three are 5 gallons variants, followed by a 2 gallon, three 1 gallons and two 1/2 gallons. I forgot to take a separate pic of the 4 gallon Forbes & Botbyl you see in the group pic on the table...

What a collection of history. Some of the older items where almost completely done by hand and where a reflection of the pride that the workers took in the finished product. Thanks for the pictures
 

Lightning strikes again! Great collection Jim
 

You have to have the most extensive Paterson, NJ bottle and Stoneware collection in the world. When are you going to open up the museum to the public?
 

Lightning strikes again! Great collection Jim
I have all my supports cut for my main shelving units, just have to pick up the lumber and drill the holes in each shelf and put it all together. One main one in the living room surrounding my TV, the other an L shaped unit in my office. Once they are up I will post pics and see how many jugs I have to build other shelves for...
 

Awesome collection, thank you for sharing! :occasion14:
